Winnipeg, MB, CANADA  - What do Botswana, Afghanistan, Peru and Moldova have in common? These are some of the sites receiving computers from NYGÅRD, the globally based company with an innovative approach to technology. North America's premier fashion house is living up to its mandate, "Where Fashion Meets Technology," by donating 10 computer monitors, 12 keyboards, 20 switches, and a server chassis complete with server blades to schools in developing nations.
 
The computer donation was made to World Computer Exchange, a not-for-profit UN partner, which works in 71 countries and connects over 1 million students to the internet every year.
 
The opportunity to make a donation that combined education and technology was fortuitous since Peter Nygård is a strong proponent of education. Recently, he personally donated $10,000 to a Bahamian youth camp where 200 children will build on their self-esteem and learn to avoid participating in gang activity.
 
NYGÅRD is a fashion manufacturer that designs and markets women’s fashion apparel worldwide. NYGARD World Headquarters is located in New York City with offices in Toronto, Winnipeg, Los Angeles, Hong Kong, Shanghai, and extensive operations in the Orient, Middle East, South Africa, and South Asia.
